If you see this and feel like doing it, consider yourself tagged 💗

name ➔ Rolling her shoulders, she stretches her legs in front of her and crosses them at the ankle, “just Roach.”

are you single ➔ “…” 

are you happy ➔ “…”

are you angry ➔ “I’m certainly heading in that direction.” Followed by an admittedly impressive eye roll.

are your parents still married ➔ Sighing dramatically, she swings an arm over the back of her seat to recline, “no, don’t reckon. They’re still together as far as I know, but marriage was never on their agenda.”

NINE FACTS

birthplace ➔ “Ontario.”

hair ➔ A tilt of the head. “As in, the color? Do you have fucking eyes?”

eye color ➔ Another eye roll. Blows a strand of hair off her cheek lazily. “Pink like a flamingo. Dickhead.” You get the feeling she isn’t taking this very seriously.

mood ➔ “Bored shitless.”

gender ➔ She picks at the black lacquer on her nails, uncrosses her ankles, and adds nothing of further interest.

summer or winter ➔  “I suppose winter.”

EIGHT THINGS ABOUT YOUR LOVE LIFE

are you in love ➔ "Yawn.”

do you believe in love at first sight ➔ “Nope. Next.”

who ended your last relationship ➔ Her gaze falls downcast, like she was somewhere else for a brief moment, before exhaling through her nose quietly. “A baseball bat, if I recall.”

have you ever broken someone’s heart ➔ She snickers at the thought,  but you’re not certain why exactly. “How about this – if you guess my answer correctly you win a gold star and a capri sun! Any takers? No? Shame.”

are you afraid of commitments ➔ “No – well, yes. Depends.”

have you hugged someone within the last week? ➔ “Fuck if I remember.” Her wrist rolls in a vague waving gesture, perhaps a little too defensively, and she looks away. “Probably. Who’s to say?”

have you ever had a secret admirer ➔ Another little laugh, as if she were sharing an inside joke with herself, and whispers, “millions, my dear. Millions.” 

have you ever broken your own heart? ➔ “Tell you what I do have; a tally of all the windows I’ve smashed.” She’s clearly amused, smiling widely.

SIX CHOICES

love or lust ➔ “Eh, lust is too easy. Everyone picks that answer. Love is worth a bit of effort, in my opinion.”

lemonade or iced tea ➔ “Iced tea, no sugar.”

cats or dogs ➔ So far this is the only question that seems to pique her interest even a little bit, and she scoots forward. “Cats,” she admits quietly.

a few best friends or many regular friends ➔ A shrug, somewhat disappointed that the next question wasn’t about her pets. She twirls a white-blonde curl with her fingertips idly, “quality over quantity, no?”

wild night out or romantic night in ➔ “I’m charmed well enough to do anything if the company’s worth it.”

day or night ➔ “Night.”

FIVE HAVE YOU EVERS

been caught sneaking out ➔ “Guess.” 

fallen down/up the stairs ➔ “Gravity’s a family friend,” her smile is oddly off-putting in a way that’s difficult to pinpoint, “he would never let me fall.”

wanted something/someone so badly it hurt? ➔ A slow upward twist of the mouth, “you could say that I’m a creature of desire, oui.” 

wanted to disappear ➔ “Who hasn’t?”

FOUR PREFERENCES

smile or eyes ➔ She spits something under her breath before answering. “Eyes. Windows to the soul or whatever the hell they say. You can’t fake your eyeballs, unlike a smile. Not without a bit more of an effort, anyway.”

shorter or taller ➔ “You know what would be fun? This quiz, if I was blackout drunk and at least ten years younger.”

intelligence or attraction ➔ “No one’s gonna come up and fuck you just ‘cause you have a four digit IQ.” She flips her hair over her shoulder. “I should know.”

hook-up or relationship ➔ “I tend to walk into a room and marry the first person I lay my eyes on, actually. I’ve got such a long list of divorcees to wipe my ass on. Is that not a common phenomenon?” Her smile suggests she’s just teasing you now.

FAMILY

do you and your family get along ➔ “We did once, a long time ago. I don’t call home as often as I should these days.”

would you say you have a “messed up life” ➔ She giggles sweetly at this, swinging one leg over the other in a graceful sort of manner. “Do I look anything other than perfect to you? Of course not.”

have you ever ran away from home ➔ “It’s the last thing I did before I caught a cab out of there.” Her pale hair sways as she shakes her head at the memory, “motherfuckers.”

have you ever gotten kicked out ➔ “Yes, but you only have three guesses as to where, precisely, I’ve been booted from. Make them count.”

FRIENDS

do you secretly hate one of your friends ➔ “Bit counterintuitive to still be calling them friends if that were true, no?”

who is your best friend ➔ “Interesting. Do other people genuinely tell you the full names of their loved ones without concern? How novel.”

who knows everything about you ➔ “If you ever find out the answer to this one, give me a shout, yeah? Love to meet ‘em.”
